DM648 - Building our application without XDC tool chain

Dear all,

Could you please explain procedure/steps to build a SYS/BIOS(Ver 5.31.08 or later) application without using XDC tool chain(or DVSDK) for DM648?
Since our application requires verification of complete source code which includes SYS/BIOS (drivers) and application has some restrictions on other tools during the compilation process.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

  • Suresha,
    please refer to this thread for a longer answer: http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/bios/f/355/p/189633/681422.aspx#681422. The short version of it is that the SYS/BIOS team does not support building for BIOS without Tconf (a part of XDCtools), and we are not aware of any third-party support for it.

  • Well , I do not want to use Packages. But I would Like to use the Libraries in .lib form. So does TI provides all the libraries that are packaged and used by XDC tool, so that I can just include the relevant header file for a lib and compile my project with no XDC support. If independent library files of a package are not available, then is there a way to unpackage them and make them available as independent lib along with .h file please.

    Thanks in advance.

  • DSP/BIOS 5 libraries are all available in the DSP/BIOS 5 installation. You can probably figure out which ones you need based on your device architecture. However, without Tconf you would have to manually create several C and assembly source files, and a linker command file. Without these files you won't be able to link because DSP/BIOS 5 libraries reference symbols created by these C and assembly files.

    As I explained in the linked thread, you can always use Tconf to create these files and then look at them, change them, etc. same as if you created them manually.

  • Thanks for your response.

    I forgot to mention that I am using only Code Composer Studio 3.3 (CCS) and BIOS to compile and No XDC/XDIAS/RTSC packages/Tools in the project.
